Overcoming limitations of a virtual private cloud (VPC) implemented on a public cloud in a cloud-native fifth generation (5G) wireless telecommunication network
By overlaying a network of virtual routers across the software defined data center and connected virtual private cloud, the challenge of intra-network communication in a 5G cloud-native wireless telecommunication network is addressed, ensuring efficient traffic routing and interoperability between cloud-native and virtual machine-based network functions.

AI Technical Summary
There is a limitation in communication within a 5G cloud-native wireless telecommunication network where network functions running on virtual machines in a software defined data center within a public cloud cannot effectively communicate with those running on the cloud-native platform of the public cloud due to the absence of a mechanism to route telecommunication network traffic outside the connected virtual private cloud.
An overlay network of virtual routers is implemented across the software defined data center and connected virtual private cloud to enable communication between network functions running on the cloud-native platform and those running on virtual machines, facilitating traffic routing between these environments.
This solution allows seamless communication and traffic routing between network functions, enhancing the flexibility and agility of the 5G network by enabling interoperability across different cloud environments.
